Abstract: A thermal protection mechanism for electric motors includes a
pair of spaced contacts secured to an electrically insulating carrier
having a cavity and a surface adjacent to a motor winding. The
surface of the carrier has an aperture that forms a thermal passage
between the surface of the carrier and the cavity. The contacts are
engaged with a fusible electrically conductive pin made of solder that is
disposed within the cavity and that interposes along a current path to
the windings of a motor. A high winding temperature causes the pin to
fuse, thereby terminating operation of the motor.

Abstract: The invention is a nozzle assembly (3, 20) with a re-useable break off cap (20) for dispensing a product from a container (1). On a dispensing end (5) of the nozzle (3) a break-off cap (20) is integrally formed thereon and closes off the dispensing end (5) of the nozzle (3). The break-off cap (20) is removable by breaking a frangible connection (22) between the nozzle (3) and the break-off cap (20). Removing the break-off cap opens the dispensing end (5) of the nozzle (3) thereby allowing product to be dispensed through the nozzle (3). The break-off cap (20) removed from the nozzle (3) can then be re-engaged with the nozzle (3) to close off the dispensing end (5) thereby preventing further product from being dispensed. The cap can be attached to or removed from the nozzle (3) as often as a user requires. The invention also includes packaging which includes a tray (111) or pouch into which the nozzle assembly (3, 20) and container (1) can be inserted. A flexible resealable peel-off cover (110) is provided on each tray (111) to allow a user to resealably open and close the tray (111). The resealable tray (111) can be provided either singly or as a series of trays.

Abstract: Grooves are formed in a CMP pad by positioning the pad on a supporting surface with a working surface of the pad in spaced relation opposite to a router bit and at least one projecting stop member adjacent to the router bit, an outer end portion of the bit projecting beyond the stop. When the bit is rotated, relative axial movement between the bit and the pad causes the outer end portion of the bit to cut an initial recess in the pad. Relative lateral movement between the rotating bit and the pad then forms a groove which extends laterally away from the recess and has a depth substantially the same as that of the recess. The depths of the initial recess and the groove are limited by applying a vacuum to the working surface of the pad to keep it in contact with the stop member(s). Different lateral movements between the bit and the pad are used to form a variety of groove patterns, the depths of which are precisely controlled by the stop member(s). The grooves may be formed in the polishing surface and/or the rear opposite surface of the pad and passages may be provided for interconnecting the rear grooves with the polishing surface or the front grooves.

Abstract: A user terminal ranks a base station depending upon a computed virtual estimate of a characteristic of a received communication signal. Overloaded base stations 2,3,4 in a cellular communications network are moved down in the active sets of mobile terminals 1 by applying an offset to the received pilot power estimates. An overloaded base station will transmit a high offset value to a terminal 1, causing it to be moved down in the active set, thereby discouraging the terminal from requesting access or handover to such base station. The user terminal comprises means for receiving a communication signal from at least one base station and for computing an estimate of a characteristic of the received communication signal, means for receiving a communication signal degradation value associated with said at least one base station, means for comparing the estimate with the degradation value and for computing a virtual estimate from the comparison and means for ranking said base station depending upon the value of the computed virtual estimate.
